LIME COOLER COOKIES RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl mix butter and powdered sugar together until sugar is completely dissolved and no lumps remain. Add vanilla, salt and lime zest then stir until combined.
• Sift flour and baking powder over butter mixture and mix just until dry ingredients are mixed into butter and no dry spots remain-the dough will still look a bit dry and will not yet have formed a cohesive mass.
• Add lime juice and mix only until the dough comes together-don't overwork the dough or cookies will become tough. Scoop approximately 2 tsp of dough and roll into a 1" ball. Place on baking sheet and repeat with all remaining cookie dough-they'll spread in the oven so there's no need to press them down.
• Bake 14-16 minutes or until the cookies become just slightly golden brown around the edges. Remove from oven and carefully transfer to a cooling rack, as they're quite fragile when warm.
• When the cookies have cooled a bit but are still slightly warm, add approximately a cup of powdered sugar to a small bowl. Gently roll the cookies in the sugar to coat then allow them to cool completely on the rack.
